PLEASURE Dome Theatre are back in the summer of 2017 after the success of their production of Macbeth in The Valley of the Rocks.

This year they are turning their attention to the story that runs through the heart of Exmoor: Lorna Doone.

Helen Payne, creative director of Pleasure Dome Theatre said: “What could be more compelling than experiencing this timeless tale of love and loss immersed in the environment that inspired it? To help bring R D Blackmore’s vision to life we are recruiting local talent to swell the ranks of our professional cast.”

All ages, abilities and levels of experience are encouraged to attend auditions on April 15 and 16 at Lynton Town Hall. There will be four sessions: 15-10am-1pm and 3pm-6pm and 16-10am-1pm and 3pm-6pm.

Please only apply if you have availability for the run August 29-September 2 and the preceding three weeks’ rehearsal.

The audition will comprise of an introduction to the project, drama games, text work and scenes that will be workshopped. RSVP with your preferred session time to pleasuredometheatre@gmail.com.
